Where Does NVIDIA Broadcast Store Settings?
Where the NVIDIA Broadcast app installs and where its effects settings live.
Last updated
NVIDIA Broadcast works as virtual camera, mic and speaker devices driven from its own app. The install sits under the NVIDIA Corporation program folders with effect models and SDK data under ProgramData. Per user choices resolve under LocalAppData, though exact subfolders shift between releases.
Treat the app UI as the source of truth. File edits are brittle across versions and the supported reset is reinstall plus reselecting the virtual devices in Zoom, Discord or OBS. Note your effect strengths somewhere before major updates.
Where NVIDIA Broadcast stores this, by platform
C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVIDIA Broadcast\
Install root plus effect data under ProgramData\NVIDIA Corporation. User selections land under LocalAppData and the exact subfolder varies by version, so prefer the in-app settings over hand edits. Reinstall to repair broken virtual devices.
Frequently asked questions
Where do I change noise removal and background settings?
Change them inside the Broadcast app per device, then reselect the NVIDIA Broadcast mic, camera or speaker in your call app. Most options (noise removal strength, background modes, eye contact) exist only in that UI and write out on apply.
An update reset my mic and camera picks. How do I avoid that?
Reinstall with Express Install and reboot. That pass preserves system device defaults and third party app selections better than a manual driver only update. Recheck each app still points at the Broadcast virtual devices after.
